Looking for input on important questions to ask when buying a vehicle with a salvage title.
In this instance, I am going to look at a 1999 GMC Sierra tomorrow. Truck is very low miles (113K), and is as clean as any vehicle I've seen in MN, given the year.
What I know thus far is that it was involved in an accident in 2005, and repaired. Apparently front left damage, no frame damage was involved.
Since the accident was 9 years ago, I can probably safely assume that the repair was done correctly?
What should I be asking, when talking to the owner? I know it is his DD, and he is selling to fund a 3/4 ton plow truck.
Thanks.
PS - LIM gasket was done, and all fluids (front to back), were flushed/drained in past year.
